My tax stamp for my SWR Specwar 5.56 should be here in a few weeks. When I shot my AR with it a while back with my dealer I noticed a nice puff of gass in my face on each shot. My solution to that is safety glasses (should have been wearing them all along). I'm not really worried about gas in the face.

But... I am concerned about increased wear on my rifle. My SOT recommended a H2 buffer to slow the BCG down.

I've searched the forums and googled the crap out of this. All the stuff I've found is more geared to the gass blowback and the wear factor is kinda pushed to the sidelines. So, I figured you guys should have an answer.

Should I get the H2 or just have fun and run the carbine buffer?

Rifle is a Windham Weaponry 16" carbine. Brass was ejecting at the 4 o'clock unsuppressed and about 2 - 2:30 suppressed.
